" Finally made it to Nobuya after hearing so many great things! The pork miso ramen was out of this world — so flavorful! The owner who runs the place has a great personality; he really connects with guests and turns the meal into a delightful experience. Just note it can be a bit crowded since it's such a tiny spot. So glad I tried this place; it's definitely going to be my go-to for ramen! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the .5yum!) experience at Nobuya last night! The ramen was just delicious. The chef takes his job very seriously and it shows in the food! I had the spicy garlic ramen and every bite was bursting with flavor! Not only that, but the atmosphere was very relaxing, perfect to unwind after a long day. The only downside was the slight wait time, but the quality of the food made it worth every second. The chef engaged with customers and created a familial environment that made me feel welcome. Definitely worth a visit if you crave authentic Japanese ramen! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a hidden gem! The tonkotsu ramen was outstanding, creamy, and loaded with toppings. I truly appreciated the personal interaction with the owner. He made the experience feel very special. I encourage anyone who is into authentic ramen to visit this spot, but remember that it may take a little bit longer due to the one-man operation — however, believe me, it’s worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Nobuya is an absolute treasure! I took a chance coming here after hearing so much buzz, and it did not disappoint. The ramen is packed with flavor and has an authentic Japanese appeal that's hard to find elsewhere. The owner takes the time to make sure every detail is perfect, which just adds to the overall experience. I ended up chatting with him for a bit while waiting, and it felt like dining with a good friend. I highly recommend the spicy miso ramen; it has a kick that will leave your taste buds dancing! I can't wait to come back for more deliciousness. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an incredible experience at Nobuya! I ordered the spicy miso ramen and it was explosion of flavors. The broth was extremely rich and comforting! It is obvious that the owner takes so much pride in his work; the atmosphere felt like stepping into a cozy home rather than a restaurant. Just keep in mind it’s a one-man operation, so the service is slower but totally understandable. Highly recommend for anyone who loves authentic Japanese food — I will definitely be back!

" I visited Nobuya last week and was thoroughly impressed! I had heard good things, but it exceeded my expectations. The ramen is true to its roots with a deeply flavorful broth that keeps you wanting more. The owner was very welcoming and personable, making us feel right at home. It was clear he puts a lot of love into his food. My only advice is to come with some time to spare as it can get busy, but believe me, the wait is well worth it. The ambiance is cozy — perfect for enjoying a quiet meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Nobuya hoping for great ramen and was utterly delighted! The owner is extremely personable and his passion is evident in the food he serves. I had the Pork Spicy Shoyu Ramen, which was rich, hearty, and left me craving more! It's essential to be patient because the wait time is longer due to him running the show alone. But, trust me, it pays off! An intimate and authentic dining experience that reminded me of the ramen shops I visited in Japan. I will undoubtedly be returning! " (*Curated Review*)
